Water Pan Siting and Construction Supervision
Overview
At Ledali Drilling Ltd., we provide expert water pan siting and construction supervision services to ensure optimal water capture and storage for rural communities, livestock, and small-scale irrigation. Water pans are shallow reservoirs designed to collect rainwater runoff, helping communities access water even during dry seasons.
Our services cover the entire process — from selecting the best location to supervising construction — ensuring water pans are efficient, durable, and environmentally sustainable.
Why It Matters
Proper siting and supervision are critical to maximize water yield, minimize seepage, and protect the surrounding environment. With the right approach, water pans:
-
Collect and store significant volumes of rainwater for dry periods
-
Reduce soil erosion and improve land productivity
-
Support livestock watering, small-scale irrigation, and domestic use
-
Provide a low-cost, scalable water storage solution
Our Approach
-
Site Assessment and Selection
Our engineers evaluate topography, soil type, rainfall patterns, and runoff potential to select the optimal water pan location. -
Design and Planning
Water pans are designed with proper embankments, spillways, and storage capacity to meet community or farm water needs. -
Construction Supervision
We oversee excavation, embankment formation, lining, and spillway installation to ensure quality, safety, and compliance with design standards. -
Water Retention Optimization
Techniques such as compaction, clay lining, or geomembranes are implemented to minimize seepage and maximize storage. -
Environmental and Safety Measures
Spillways and surrounding catchment protection are included to prevent erosion and maintain ecosystem balance. -
Handover and Follow-Up
Once construction is complete, we provide guidance on operation, maintenance, and monitoring for long-term reliability.
